Noelle and Athena

Dad ignoring safey warning: No riders
(At least I'm not using the mower as a hedge trimmer)

Hey, did they just go thru a drive-thru?

His parents are very proud

Ultimate Fairweather Fan

The Ultimate Fairweather Fan

Connor's current approach to watching sports is quite amusing as he is the ultimate fairweather fan. First, he is not really a sports fan, as it can interfere with the educational programming he watches, such as, Sponge Bob Square Pants (Thanks to Sponge Bob, he learned all about a "spatula"). I'm less of a sports fan than I used to be, though I still like to watch basketball.

Back in the 80s I used to root for the Boston Celtics. I now root for Steve Nash and the Phoenix Suns. I'm not really a Celtic fan anymore - I'm a Phoenix Suns fan. This evolution of switching favorite teams took decades. Connor switches favorite teams a little quicker. Connor will switch his allegiance with a change in the score! Who's winning, Dad? I explained to him the essence of a sports fan, but he simply replied, "I only root for the team that is winning". Well, at least he is never disappointed in the outcome of a game!
